Jesse Tyler Ferguson revealed that he rushed one of his sons to the hospital on Thanksgiving.
On Thursday, the Modern Family actor, 49, took to Instagram to post a pH๏τo of himself sitting in a hospital bed with one of his sons who lay ill on his chest. The father-son duo were surrounded by medical equipment and covered by a blanket.
He did not specify if it was son Beckett Mercer, 4, or Sullivan ‘Sully’ Louis, 2 — who he shares with husband Justin Mikita — that needed emergency medical attention. Luckily, the youngster is ‘fine’ now and out of the New York City hospital.
The star also explained that his Modern Family costar Julie Bowen also made a trip to the medical center for her own son to receive care.
‘I have received a lot of parenting wisdom from @itsjuliebowen so seeing I wasn’t the only one with a kid in the ER on Thanksgiving was comforting. (He’s also fine.),’ he penned in the caption.
‘Thank you to the kind folks at Lennox Health. NYC really DOES have the best healthcare.’
